Goodbye, Camille! 💚 Five months of good energy, beautiful memories, and a lot of delicious cakes!
Thanks to Giosef Torino, we had the pleasure of hosting Camille at Kora, and what a wonderful addition to our team she was! From the kitchen to the garden, she brought enthusiasm, creativity and care to everything she did. 🌿
But let’s hear it from Camille herself 👇
“My name is Camille, and for several years I have been exploring ecological and social transition through various professional and volunteering experiences. Now, I want to specialise in what I am most passionate about: sustainable cooking and gardening 🌿
When I discovered Kora’s ESC volunteering programme “Garden to Plate”, it felt like the perfect opportunity to gain hands-on experience, contribute to meaningful Erasmus+ projects and live in an intercultural, natural environment 🌾
For five months, I lived on a farm, surrounded by olive trees, with a view of one of Italy’s largest lakes. I spent my days between the kitchen, the garden and the volunteers’ communal house, while also exploring beautiful places in Italy 🇮🇹
I helped cook for Erasmus+ groups, prepared coffee breaks, made preserves from farm-grown produce, gardened, and created videos for social media. I learnt new recipes, how to grow and harvest plants, how to dry herbs, and how to edit videos 👩🍳👩🌾
I brought home nice memories, good recipes, a better understanding of myself, and a desire to keep exploring sustainable cooking and gardening!
To anyone hesitating about joining a similar project: go for it! ESC is a truly enriching opportunity to live abroad, meet people from different backgrounds and develop skills in a field you care about ✨”
Camille, thank you for everything you brought to Kora (and for all those delicious cakes!). We’ll miss having you around and can’t wait to see where your journey takes you next! 💚
